2941  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant on: November 08, 2021, 03:16:41 AM
Alvares led the game with good strategy and in the 11th round he finished off the plant with explosive hits. it was a good match. So Alvarez proved it, he is invincible.

Before the fight, I never would have imagined the Canelo to KO Plant, i guess the thought of becoming the FIRST UNDISPUTED SUPER-MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION must have fuel Canelo's hunger to win the fight. He has really proven himself and shown that he is not the world's best pound for pound fighter for nothing. He worked Plant and watched for sign of weakness, immediately Canelo noticed that Plant had been hurt, he took full advantage and went for the KO, Great Strategy, Great Fight.

Well if you have followed everything leading up to the fight, Canelo was really mad at Caleb and he says this is personal. And we all know that if a fighter takes it like that, there will be a knock out.

But indeed, it was a pleasure in our lifetime to see two great fighters, Manny Pacquiao - 8 division champ. And now we have Canelo Alvarez of Mexico, perhaps now the greatest Mexican boxers of all time. Maybe surpassing JCC Sr, and then Barrera or Marquez. (at least Mexican boxers that I have seen in my lifetime).

Cryptocurrency is increasingly getting into our everyday lives! A congressman in Brazil has recently proposed a bill to allow Brazilian citizens to choose whether to receive their payroll in cryptos or in fiat. If accepted, it will be an important step forward to total Bank independence.

Yes, I would love to have that option too, to be paid in bitcoin as a salary payment. But it might take a while though, unless it will be really implemented and become law. Because this employers doesn't want another burden for them. I mean they will have to find someone in their payroll department that is at least has knowledge in bitcoin.

Hopefully though maybe in the next 5 years, when bitcoin is somewhat globally adopted, at least 50% of all nation recognised bitcoin as currency or store of value or medium of exchange.

The Nets getting clobbered by the Raptors right now. James Harden is once again looking terrible. Between the Nets and the Lakers losing games, and LeBron James sitting around tweeting about football instead of his team’s struggles is definitely not where I saw this season going. I can only hope we see a good matchup in the Finals and that these struggles for both teams are temporary.

Nope, actually it was James Harden (of course Durant as well), who put big numbers, specially down the stretch with less than 2 minutes when the Raptors are trying to make a come back. Hits a jumper and then another 3 to stop a 7-1 run by the Raptors. Nets now on a 4 game winning streak even without Kyrie Irving.

Harden with 28, Durant with 31.

Siakam with a 15 point debut game.

I took the risk and bet on Djokovic ML here, 2.09 for a boosted odds.

I know that Medvedev is really hot right now and destroying every one. But I think Djokovic will still wanted to prove that he is the top tennis player and wanted to get back at Medvedev in this finals. He has beaten Pete Sampras record already as the longest number 1 so he might want to keep it that way.
Good choice in the end. Djokovic managed to get into Medvedev head and turn it around. Djokovic was the better player after first 3 games when he upped his aggression. That is why he is still number one. When plan A is not working he switches to B then C..... until he finds something that works.

I am just happy I managed to cash out without loosing any money when it was 2:1 for Medvedev in 3rd. I was afraid I would not make it in time since i had to wait for Premier League matches to finish for cash-out to get available.

Thanks mate, when I see that Djokovic lost in the first set, I thought that it will be all Medvedev already.

But we all know that Djokovic has this ability to lost the first set but then comeback in the last 2 sets and win the game.

My only regrets is that not betting on the over, my bet will also be a win.



Good though that you have cash out early, most of the time, I don't take advantage of this

I'm not sure what do you mean by META, is this the rebranded Facebook or just another token?

If this is a Facebook token, it could create a massive pump in the beginning and then followed by a huge dumped. So I doubt that it should be used for long term holders as usually this kind of projects are just pure hype and will just make more money to investors. So rinse and repeat process.
2946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lopez vs Kambosos - November 27 on: November 07, 2021, 12:02:40 PM
^^ I don't think Lopez has that in his fight. For him the business with Loma is done, he has beat him "fair and square" in the ring. So as much as Loma wanted to get a rematch, I don't think that Lopez will give one unless there are more $ in the table for him.

And with his big win against Loma, he is on the top of the division. But he already gave a hint that maybe after this fight he will move up to 140 lbs because there is big money there, against the unified champion Josh Taylor.

He is fast and strong for his weight, I don't think Andrade, the Charlo brothers can take his power he can move to a higher division and still be powerful and fast, there's no one in his division that can beat him now, people are now thinking of the Golovkin fight, Golovkin is still better and he is the only fighter who has gone toe to toe against Alvarez and they should settle the score between the two fo them, the second fight is not unanimous.

I agree, Charlo brothers has nothing to offer to Canelo, they hasn't beat any name fighters in their resume, while Andrade the same, just looking for a good paycheck before he retires.

Options for Canelo is to move up to 175 lbs, Bivol or Beterbiev, that will be an amazing fight as those two are also heavy punches and have been avoided.

I have also made a bet on over games in second semi final, I don't see any value to bet on in Djoko match.

Personally I don't really care if it is Medvedev or Zverev in the final, I am betting on one of them against Djokovic. If I had to pick the winner I would go with Zverev to take the tournament at the moment but I am probably biased since I watched Zverev in almost all the matches while I did not see much of Medvedev and I did not watch even a minute of Djokovic games.

You are right, no real value in the match of Djokovic. I was looking at Djokovic -1.5 sets, but that odd (@1.6) was just not tempting enough. The bookies see Medvedev as a favorite against Zverev but could go both ways. Didn't really follow this tournament, but there is quite some value in over 2.5 sets @2.2.


Anyone betting against Djokovic though against Hurkacz? Or Hurkacz doesn't have a chance?

Maybe we can see an upset today, maybe my guts is correct, maybe I'm wrong. But I'm betting on Hurkacz. ML + parlay .

And regardless of on who will win on the second game, I have my bets ready of Hurkacz + parlay on both Zverev and Medvedev.

Hurkacz came tantalisingly close to a super win against Djokovic in the third set
tie breaker, 7-5 in that to Djokovic. Hurkacz ran him close, Djokovic was really stressed,
giving out to the cameraman and the umpire too at one stage.

I didnt bet on that one but I do have Medvedev to beat Zverev, who is a break ahead
in the first set now....

Yeah, I really thought that Hurkacz can pull that upset, the final set is very close and could have gone either way.

Although I also won by Djokovic winning + Medvedev as well.



Was able to get back some of the lose of a Hurkacz upset bet.

So the dream match is here, Djokovic vs Hurkacz,

Djokovic - 1.99
Medvedev - 1.79
2950  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gabling prohibited in some countries on: November 06, 2021, 07:45:15 PM
As far as I know, most Islamic countries banned gambling totally, so obviously it has something to do with religion.

But maybe non Muslims countries who restricts gambling simply doesn't want their people to involved themselves in gambling, simply as that. Or there are countries that don't have regulatory framework to cover gambling, hence they also ban it.

Even if the S2F model, I won't sell my bitcoin period, maybe we will enter a bear market after that, if it didn't go to 6 digit as predicted. But learning from the 2018 bearish cycle, it could be the best time to buy cheap bitcoin specially if it falls <$30k (half of the current market price).

And have a lot of patience and. then wait for the next 4 years again. Investors who have been in the game for so long knows how the market works and they are the once holding bitcoin for a long time.
2952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Reymart Gaballo (WBC bantamweight) on: November 06, 2021, 03:44:39 PM
I'm sure there will be a new champion soon aside from Casimero and Donaire, obviously, Donaire will retire soon, so we need some fighters to step up and to continue bringing honor to our country.

And that was Reymart Gaballo. I'm with him against Nonito Donaire. I'm looking forward that Donaire will give Gaballo a difficult fight to win. Donaire still has that power but better hang his gloves now. He can't show his 100% to Gaballo because his target was Casimero and Naoya Inoue.

Donaire needs to be physically 100% in this fight, Gaballo is no push over, and he is very ambitious too and that's what makes him a very dangerous opponent for Donaire. I understand your reasoning, Donaire is old and might be slipping and fighters really do age and show it in their fight. As I have said, he needs to be perfect here, his preparation is everything. Otherwise, we will see Gaballo making an upset. And set the tone for a new Filipino coming up in the ranks.
2953  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 06, 2021, 11:13:19 AM
The GSW become good again and Klay wasn't even playing yet. It seems like they'll gonna reclaim their spot in the playoffs judging on their performance early this season.
They don't even have a legit big man.

By the way, did you guys appreciate how the NBA has been changing the rules. James Harden just literally hooked Jackson's arm and was called for an offensive foul.
Precisely. No Klay, no problem. The Warriors is not winning because they have stars and this is almost the same before they became a champion.
Curry, Klay, and Draymond Green was not known all those years until they snatch the trophy.
Now, a new era of Warriors players is developing. Jordan Poole, Damion Lee, Gary Payton II, and JTA. These guys are not really superstars but they look like one after completing a play.
That is why they are lovely to watch, underdog players who plays as a team would best a roster filled with superstars like the Lakers.

It's because they have built their team last year without Klay that's why we have seen Jordan Poole now being the second man. And then a lot of additions again, building a solid team around Steph. Iggy too, his confidence is very high right now as if he is playing at this prime, lol. Now, they are looking great with the current roster and just waiting for Klay to comeback and will go for another championship run.

Jordan Poole is getting the consistency that the warriors need, he scored about 26 points against the Pelicans and scored 31 points against Charlotte. I never expect he will be this good, I hope to see him score the same even against a team that the Warriors might struggle to win. The Warriors record is still good, they only lose 1 game and their win streak continues in a dominant way.

Next game against the Rockets, another easy game for the Warriors.

And if I'm not mistaken, the announcer said that Jordan Poole stays in the arena or at least continue his shooting more than any other GSW player.

And now we are hitting the fruits of his labor as he can literally shot the 3's anywhere he want just like Steph. And I've seen youtube even before the season starts that Poole are going to be big with the GSW and that's what happening now.

Therefore my pick is Hawks -1 at home.
It didn't go well, Utah Jazz smashed the home team hard. Lose this bet of mine.



Next bet now.

Game: Bucks vs Knicks.

I have the road team here betting the undermanned Bucks.

No Holiday, Middleton, and Lopez.. these are the starters they are missing, so I think Knicks has a huge chance here.

Therefore my pick is Knicks +4.5 and ML.



I tail you on this one, although it will be on the home court of the Bucks and they are coming from a win against Detroit, they are facing a good team here in NYK.

So yes, NYK will be at a advantage without the Bucks key players and I wouldn't be surprised if they can cover that spread to +5.5. But a ML will be a good bet already.
2956  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tron could be next doge or ada? on: November 04, 2021, 10:23:45 PM
In the crypto currency market the tron is very known coin . It's a very unique coin and not like other . The other coin just like doge and ada etc, they pump very high and also having dumped to the lowest price. But the tron is an old coin. And still it is in the much better than other crypto.
How old is the Tron coin in cryptocurrency ? Because I know Dogecoin is the oldest cryptocurrency after Bitcoin because Dogecoin was created in 2013, while Tron was discovered by Justin Sun in 2017, well in this case you can make a reasonable comparison, is Tron older than Dogecoin? try to think with common sense and sane logic, and don't forget to drink coffee bro so that your brain runs smoothly. Grin

Maybe what he meant is that it has been in crypto space for years already and yet Tron is not moving as it should be in this bullish market.

That makes no sense at all, I predicted that it should be in the top 10 at least by know, but I guess Justin has no longer the power to be the "shill God', Lol, back in 2017 or at least 2019, every tweet of him really put Tron to the top, massive spikes. But maybe people have learn their lessons and now there are a lot of coins that overtook Tron. So no is my answer, Tron can't be the next Doge or ADA as far as massive growth is.
2957  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 04, 2021, 10:00:02 PM
^ Klay is one of my favorite players and this is some huge news. Klay returning will give huge morale and also a performance boost to GSW. Klay is one of the best 3 point shooters who will play alongside another big 3 point shooter- Curry. Their duo is insane. If Klay can return early enough and can get back to his good form, there is no one stopping GSW from winning the title.
I think many fans want to see the Splash Brothers in action again as soon as possible. However, the Warriors still don't allow Klay Thompson to practice at full strength even though he looks healthy in that video. The Warriors management and medical staff should be 100 percent sure that Klay does not get injured a third time after returning.
Many are excited to say how good Klay right now during the rehabilitation process he have been through and hope that it wouldn't be an upset to those who waits for him. The Warriors are in a current good standing and if by chance Klay plays this December I think that will be a good addition.  Well, whatever they prepared for, injuries are uncertain and they can't prevent it, it should be Klay who would take good care of his health.

Everyone is really excited how will Klay be in his comeback, Durant's comeback last year was pretty awesome, as if he didn't have the injury, and hopefully we wanted to see the old Klay, catch and shoot 3's, moving without the ball, playing good defense.

But before we can see him on the court, GSW will needs to make sure that he is healthy because that is really a devastating injury and wanted that no stones are left un turn, 100% healthy for him or no play.
2958  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: November 04, 2021, 09:37:16 PM
Any thoughts on the Bulls vs 76ers?

Both teams are doing pretty well, Bulls are surprising with 3-0 on the road and 6-1 ATS overall.
76ers, on the other hand, have a 3-1 home record, and I'm thinking if they'll win here they will likely cover the -2 spread.

What do you think, should I follow the hot Bulls or take the homecourt advantage for the 76ers?

Currently the Sixers are are leading, I mean they are leading the whole game so far and have gotten as big as 15 point lead.

But the Bulls can't be count out, they keep coming back, Not sure if you have bet already, but Bulls is the underdog so maybe they can come back again just like they did against the Celtics.

Tough luck for the Bulls, when they are about to close the gap, and if I'm not mistaken, even takes a one point lead, but suddenly the 76ers will come back and make a bunch of point to pull again.

And that is the story up to the end, it's a winnable for Bulls, but they can't just make points when needed against the 76ers.
76ers remained to be a strong team even without Simmons, they still look like a playoff team and I liked it because they could be undervalued.

What we saw is like a potential playoff match and that home-court advantage was huge, but if ever the Bulls will host the 76ers, I think the Bull will take their revenge and with my thought, I'm going to back them.

Count Simmons out, he no longer wanted to be a Sixers. Love Niang now and his 3's, Curry though, I've heard that he is 2nd with the highest percentage 2's in the NBA right now? just behind LA of Nets, that's already accomplished.

Although they contained Joel, yet there are others that step up the plate. Joel, did play good defense though and intimidate the Bulls in the middle with his presence.
2959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lomachenko vs Commey - December 11 on: November 04, 2021, 12:49:24 PM
Well on this match --I will go with Richard Commey.
As a record of [30-3, 27 KO] I think that is enough experience for him to knock out his opponent. It seems Vasiliy Lomachenko was very young in this industry and perhaps that is becoming the odds are in favor of Commey. However, I don't think this is a perfect match but for now, no one else who would fight Commey is just Lomachenko. Booth players are very aggressive and technically I am basing on their experience, perhaps I am wrong with this assumption but I am a solid supporter of Richard Commey.

Not sure what you mean that Lomachenko is very young in boxing, yes he fought for a title in his 3rd fight and have won multiple divisional belts already and considered as pound for pound until he lost to Teofimo Lopez.

Goodluck on supporting Richard Commey here, because he is going to be one huge underdog in this fight. And maybe he will be the one getting knockout.
2960  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: November 04, 2021, 11:55:19 AM

Interestingly for points Hurkacz and Norrie are through to the next round.
Norrie in particular needs to progress through as far as he can to get as many
points as he can, now with sinner out can he  get enough points?
More likely he need to win the title paris master to qualify for atp nitto final, and I little doubt he can.

Don't give much attention to this tournament but today I really want to make a bet in 3 match that I see will tight
G. Dimitrov vs A. Zverev in over
D. Koefer vs Hurkacz in over (more likely if Koefer play well like he beat FAA)
C. Norrie vs T. Fritz in over

Good call on the Hurkacz vs Koepfer it's over now, the match has been extend to a final set. Very excited game, 6-4, 5-7. I think even if the match didn't go down to a 3rd own and Koepfer won a tie break, the totals will be over, (initial line is 21.5).

But I can't tell who are going to win the match though, both are really playing very well. Gonna be a tie break in the 3rd to settle.
